CAUSE OF TERRY'S BREAKDOWN Is a Victim to Overtraining and Not Balding JJp Proper i ' Defense. .' ' ' :,... CONTINUED PUNISHMENT ' RUINS MANY BOXERS Records Today Show That tho Fight- era Who Keep to the Front Are aa Skillful in Defending Themselves as in Giving Blows. " ; Terry McQovern, strapped, to a cot In a'Broklyn Insane ward, la a lesson to fighters who here studied only tha of fensive aide of their calling. The former champion of the world Is still a young ster. Five yeara ago'be Tanked aa tha greatest little man the game had aver known. . . Today ha la down and out. ' . It la not the pace that kills which pulled down Terry. His bad habits did not begin until his decline had started. Perhaps they helped to hasten the end. They did not begin It. McQovern Is a victim of overtraining and lack of a proper dorense. - - He came Into the ring a full-fledged champion. He underwent no appren ticeship. He had a punch that none could withstand. Others might be better boxers, but the terrible punch of Terry for a time discounted all skill, and It waa not until he met In Toung Corbett, a youth who did not fear him, who could box and had a wallop that Terry waa dropped from Jits pedestal. Sad Vo Defease. . Mesntlme. during four busy yeara, Terry had been fighting without a de fense. He had never learned how to cover up hla body and protect the vital psrta. He won ao easily that he did not think he needed to master tha defensive skill that-enabled -a-man to eiirrlve-a long career and come out unharmed. "fake a blow to give one." was Terry's motto. He acted on it literally. With lowered head, carelesa of what punches might be rammed Into bis heart and stomach, he rushed In to annihilate hla men. He uually succeeded, but In every one of these fights he was hit often and hard. This continued punishment had a cum ulative effect. Terry became a nervous wreck. Moreover, he was always Jn training, and gave outraged nature no rhanre to rejuvenate Itself. His finish Is only what must hsve been expected under the circumstances. , ' An examination of the records will ahow that it is only the men who un derstood the srt of avoiding punishment who have kept to the tore for a long time. r Joe Oans waa a champion before Terry, and he Is still one. He knows how to box. Tommy Ryan and Jack O'Brien Illustrate the same idea. After they quit tha boxing game they will still be splendid specimens of manhood in fine .physical and mental trim. The alap, bang boxer who reckona Bilyeu, Trine (Trainer).' Those Bennett. , v" . nothing of taking a punch la' a hero with the publlo while It lasts, but he paya the price. ' . - Oaae of Xld Carta. A few yeara ago the public delighted to cheer Kid Carter, one of the bravest men who ever pulled on. a glove,- Ha had a terrlflo punch, and thoae. who saw him give away weight to Que Ruhlln will never forget hla matchless courage in those unequal bouts. He took terrible beatings from Peter Vlaher, whom he knocked out. Marvin Hart and Jack O'Brien, yet he never flinched. Finally all of a sudden bo collapsed and went back so pitiably that men who at one time would have run, from him for their lives were able to knock him out. Had Carter first learned how to ward off punishment, he might have been a. star today. . Tom Sharkey was aa brave aa any of them. He could alug. but not box. The awful lacing Jim Jeffries visited on tha sailor put hint out of the fighting game. Ho -came baclt-once and look on::. Jack Munroa, but he waa no longer , the Sharkey of old. Kid Broad' waa a similar caaa In tha ranks of the amaller men. So was game little Eddie Hanlon, a lionhearted young ster who was fighting champions while in hla teena. ' Eddie was a bulldog, a forcer of the battling, but ha lacked the art "of keeping J away, from, the blows. Ha has never gone nearly aa far aa ha ahould. Al Welnlg had a wallop, but no guard and hla light went out.- Yet Jimmy Gardner, a welter, who can box, ought to be good for 10 years. George Gardner's clumay atyla and ruggednesa went for a .while, then the effect of the poundlnga began to tell, until eventually he lost his courage and became eventually , the worst lemon Ip the ring. . In football the eoachea alwaya teach a team how to defend lta goal before Imparting . the art of maa.ng touch downs. It ahould be so In boxing. ' The men with the punch, who forgets the laws of aelf-defense, can have but ihort-lived aucceaa in the ring, and that only at a terribte'risk.
